Kansas City International Airport attractions and Travel Tips

Car Rental at Kansas City Airport

Kansas City is best known for its long and rich history of jazz music. At the western edge of the state of Missouri, this city boasts interesting museums and great family attractions. Check out car rental at Kansas City Airport and compare prices to find the best way to get around town. Your Midwestern adventure is waiting.

What can I see in Kansas City?

The 18th and Vine District is famous for jazz – it's where you'll still find regular live concerts in bars. To learn more, visit the American Jazz Museum. There are exhibits dedicated to some of the nation's finest performers, such as Louis Armstrong and Ella Fitzgerald. Live performances regularly take place in the museum's Blue Room, so check the calendar of events before heading there in your rental car from Kansas City Airport.

In the same building, another interesting look at African American culture can be found in the form of the Negro Leagues Baseball Museum. This museum preserves the history of African Americans in baseball during the time of segregation, with exhibits dedicated to some of the sport's biggest stars. The Field of Legends features bronze statues of twelve of the best Black baseball players in history.

A lot of visitors to Kansas City are confused by its name – and by the fact that there is another, much smaller, Kansas City in the neighboring state of Kansas. Oddly enough, Kansas City, MO, is the older of the two. It got its name because it was built on the banks of the Kansas River. Today, the state border separates Kansas City, MO, from Kansas City, KS – although the two are so close together that you can easily cross from one to the other in your cheap rental car from Kansas City Airport.

History of Kansas City

The 33rd president was a Missouri native who lived most of his life in Kansas City. Today you can visit his old house, the Harry S. Truman National Historic Site, easily accessible with rental cars from Kansas City Airport. Despite reaching the highest office in the country, Truman enjoyed a simple home life with his wife and daughter. You can take a guided tour of the family residence, which has been kept as it was when the Trumans lived here.

Kansas City is also home to the National WWI Museum and Memorial, which contains a large collection of First World War artifacts. A field of poppies represents the soldiers who lost their lives in the war, and the Liberty Tower memorial stands 217 feet high.

What can kids do in Kansas City?

The massive World of Fun amusement park is spread over 235 acres. Here you'll find everything from thrilling rollercoasters to gentle rides for the little ones. Easily reached with car hire from Kansas City Airport, this park complex also contains the Oceans of Fun water park. Admission to Worlds of Fun will allow you to enter both.

For indoor fun, rent a car at Kansas City Airport and drive to LEGOLAND Discovery Center. This center has two rides as well as plenty of zones where kids can build and play with the world-famous blocks.

Getting around Kansas City

With cheap car rental at Kansas City Airport readily available, a private vehicle is the best way of getting around town. Cheap car rentals in the United States allow you to go beyond the city limits, visiting neighboring Kansas as well as interesting towns nearby in Missouri.

What road trips can I take from Kansas City?

Kansas City Airport car rentals allow you to explore the Midwest. Go fishing in Lake Jacomo or, for a taste of history, head to Missouri Town 1855. There you'll find costumed actors reenacting rural life from the Old West.

A longer road trip might take you deep into the state of Kansas or beyond but remember that distances in the Midwest can be deceptive. If you're dreaming of a very long Midwestern road trip, sometimes it can be easier to take a flight. For example, Salt Lake City is over 1,000 miles away – why not fly there and look for cheap car rentals in Salt Lake City Airport instead?
